Basic Folk is a listener-funded podcast run by passionate folk music lovers. It’s free to listen (and always will be!), but it’s not free to produce.

There aren’t many podcasts out there like Basic Folk: diving deep into artists’ stories while searching for the emotion behind those stories.

Contribute to Basic Folk to support honest conversations with folk musicians. Hosts Cindy Howes and Lizzie No offer well-researched interviews with a diverse roster of musicians, including Black, Brown and queer people. Your donation funds production, staff and website maintenance. Help pay for your listening with a generous gift of $5 a month or more.

New for 2024: As a thank-you, we're offering our exclusive Basic Folk Beanie hand-made by Cindy's mom (AW HOW CUTE).
